Mr. Elujokor, now Real Estate Management and Risk Manager, hails from Ekpon in Edo State.
Speaking at the Oligbo Palace, shortly after Class 79 paid a courtesy visit on the Traditional Ruler of Issele-Uku Kingdom, His Royal Majesty (HRM) Agbogidi Obi Nduka, said he decided to dress on his uniform when the group came together for a reunion after 42 years.
“I came on the uniform to exemplify what we stand for. This was our uniform”, the elated Real Estate Management and Risk Manager disclosed.
Speaking on the falling standard of education in the country, he said: “from the information we are getting now, the school system in Nigeria, has been so deraided that most students now don’t even learn, keep their culture, even observe punishment any more.
“In our days, the kind of discipline that was inculcated in us made us to stand out and that is why you can see us doing well today in our various endeavors”.
He expressed displeasure over the attitude of government, saying “I think government over the years has failed us. Teachers these days are no longer trained. They have commercialized everything”, regretting that people now centres on wealth than integrity.
According to him, when salaries are not paid, teachers would not put in their best, calling for a change in the system, “And we too parents, we must inculcate discipline in the lives of our children. Most parents are equally guilty of what is happening in our society. God will help us”, he prayed.
